European stocks suffered on the day, thanks to Russia threatening to cut off gas supplies while a vote by European Union lawmakers to zabrana “unhosted” wallets further soured the mood.
While failing to spark a deeper retracement towards $40,000, the triggers left Bitcoin short of its all-important yearly open at $46,200 at the time of writing. This, in turn, left the door open for a return of the trading range in force since the beginning of 2022 with the yearly open as its ceiling.
“If we are supposed to go down, I think it’ll happen from here,” trader Crypto Ed summarized alongside a chart showing bullish and bearish continuations.
